Akin to most puzzlers, 'Kurulin Fusion' ('Kurulin') becomes fairly self-explanatory upon initial play. Simplistic in design and execution, Kurulin's core mechanics require matching like-colored fusion blocks and energy orbs. If the two (of same color) touch other, all surrounding blocks and orbs of matching color disappear. Blocks and orbs pile too high…game over.
GDN writes: "Kurulin Fusion combines some strategy skills with your standard match-three and places it all in a cool atmosphere with great visuals and tunes. The music was done by reknowned Final Fantasy composer Nobuo Uematsu and is based on classical music (but in a totally techno sort of way)."
GoFanboy writes: "At first glance, Kurulin Fusion could easily pass for Super Puzzle Fighter II. And that's never a bad thing for a puzzle game looking to stand apart from the competition. Two variants of colorful pieces drop down the playfield. These include both square power blocks and circular energy orbs. Just like in the popular SPF II, you build up the blocks by connecting the square-like pieces. Once an orb of a similar color hits any size grouping of power blocks, the result is a cleared space giving you a nice bundle of points. The gameplay may seem a little confusing or odd when you read my description, but that's typically the case with most matching games on the market. But it's not that complicated."

"Amazon has a handful of Playstation Network games discounted 50%!
Here is the list:
Critter Crunch (PS3) - $3.49 (Normally $6.99)
Burn Zombie Burn (PS3) - $4.99 (Normally $9.99)
Kurulin Fusion (PSP) - $2.49 (Normally $4.99)
We highly recommend these games at that price...
Check out the rest:"
Critter Crunch and Burn Zombie Burn are worth the full price so they are definitely must-buys at those prices.
Sony is offering these same games on sale too during their 10 for 10 Sale. What I'm interested to see if whether or not Amazon will start to offer sales even when Sony isn't. That's the clincher right there. Especially if other retailers start to pick up PSN games.
Think I might try Critter Crunch. Wish I would have waited till now for Braid.
